Waste of Time
This game was an ambitious attempt at . . . something, but in the end the rigor to match the ambition was absent, and I felt like my time had been wasted when I finished this game. I went out of my way to find as many voxophones as I could, unlock every locked door/item, etc., but all the cool ideas didn't ultimately tie together to form something coherent and compelling. The gameplay, as is frequently acknowledged, is mediocre. I was expecting more from the story. Being vague to avoid spoilery, in the end I was left wondering "yeah, ok, but why is it particularly plausible that doing that in particular at that juncture with those instances of those relevant factors resolve all possible versions of the problem?" That is not a very clear critique, but to explain my dissatisfaction would require spoiling basically everything interesting about the plot of this game.
